2-Methylcyclohexanone 99% CAS NO. 583-60-8 Industrial Grade
This high-purity 2-Methylcyclohexanone is a clear, colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic ketone-like odor, featuring a purity exceeding 99%. As a substituted cyclohexanone derivative, it combines excellent solvency properties with controlled reactivity, making it ideal as a high-boiling point solvent and chemical intermediate. Its unique structure offers enhanced solubility for various polymers and resins compared to unsubstituted cyclohexanone, with modified evaporation characteristics suitable for specialized coating formulations and organic synthesis applications.
Scope of Application
· This product is widely used as a high-boiling solvent in vinyl resins, nitrocellulose lacquers, acrylic coatings, and polyurethane systems where modified evaporation rates and enhanced solvency are required.
· It serves as an effective chemical intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, fragrances, and other organic compounds requiring the 2-methylcyclohexyl moiety.
· It can be used as a polymerization solvent for specialty polymers and as a reaction medium for oxidation and condensation reactions.
· It is also employed in printing inks, adhesives, paint strippers, and industrial cleaning formulations where its balanced solvency and evaporation profile offer advantages.
Product Features
This 2-Methylcyclohexanone is produced via controlled catalytic hydrogenation or oxidation processes using advanced manufacturing technology, ensuring consistent quality and batch-to-batch stability. With a purity exceeding 99% (verified by GC analysis), it offers reliable and predictable performance in demanding applications. The methyl substitution at the 2-position modifies the solvent properties compared to cyclohexanone, offering adjusted polarity, evaporation rate, and solvency characteristics for specialized formulations. It features low water content and strict control of organic impurities, ensuring optimal performance in sensitive synthesis and coating applications. Advanced analytical instruments including Gas Chromatography (GC) and Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) are employed to ensure the product meets stringent industrial standards.
Packaging and Transportation
